Sweet potato butter

Ingredients

  • 4 cups peeled sweet potatoes, cut into slices about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick
  • 2 cups peeled, cored, and chopped apples
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg, optional
  • 1/2 cup water

How to make it

  • Combine all ingredients in slow cooker and stir. Cook on high until sweet potatoes are fully cooked.
  • Mash or beat with an electric mixer until well blended.
  • This mixture will be a little thicker than apple butter.
  • If you put it in hot jars with fresh lids and bands it will seal and you can put in your pantry.
  • If not canned it will hold in the refrigerator for several weeks.
